I'm sorry but I'm sure that after Gears 1 development was neither tight on budget nor only 50 people strong on the Gears series, just check Gears 3s credits. Also you're ignoring the natural increase in manpower that is needed for game development this gen, especially if they want to get the next Gears out in 2016, which I'm sure they will.

Rod Fergusson said their team was small and overworked.

Epic was not interested in Gears IP like MS was. They're mainly a game engine company.

If there's one thing that doesn't lack in MS studios, are devs with UE4 knowledge. Crackdown, Fable, Scalebound, etc... are all being made with UE4 engine. Epic also has a technological partnership with MS to provide and assist with UE.

Manpower won't be an issue in Gears of War production.
